Led by Chris Ceglia of Capcom, EVO will be streamed by various members of the fighting game community. Team Sp00ky, the IPW guys and the likes will be helping with production and whatever is needed.

♦ Main Stream
♦ Capcom Fighters Stream
♦ Netherrealm Stream
♦ Tekken Stream

For multiple stream viewing, use Multitwitch. It's easier than mashing DP.
Use a / after the URL followed by name of stream and repeat.
For example for srkevo 1 to 4 it would be http://www.multitwitch.tv/srkevo1/sr...rkevo3/srkevo4.
Make sure you have capable hardware.

Complaining about "Why this game is in the line-up!?", "X game is better!" and just general whining about what's being run will not be tolerated.
 
Let's go !

I'm not really hyped like the previous years, this feel like a transition EVO.

But i'll watch UMVC3, Tekken, AnimEVO, and everything i can gather on MvC:I / DBFighterZ / The new Arika Game.

So hyped. Not going this year but looking forward to all the tournaments as well as more footage of Marvel Infinite and DBZF.
 
Sad I won't be going this year. Good luck to all the homies heading out to the desert!

I'm hoping Nobi (or a surprise King player) wins T7.

Hopefully I'll actually be attending and competing by next year lol. Thanks CrackPebbles for playing me and putting up with my scrubby ass on the road to Evo 2018!!!

Also, don't forget: We will be seeing more of Arika's new game that was first shown in it's early stages back on April fool's of this year. Very excited to see what they have planned!

Potential revels to look forward to:
SFV next DLC character
Injustice 2 - Starfire trailer (maybe more)
Tekken 7 possible announcement
Arika Game
Marvel vs Capcom InfinitelyShatUpon character reveals
DBZ
Rumored RWBY game
and more...

I decided I'm gonna let someone else win SFV this year so I won't bring the gold home for gaf this time. Maybe next time though.

Holy crap, I used to always be hyped as hell for EVO, but it kinda snuck up on my this year. I don't know how that happened...

Still kinda salty KI won't be there. Oh well.


I can't wait for Evo to start back up.
Man, thing I hate about EVO is it always convinces me to buy more fightsticks and fighting games that I will just be terrible at, but I still love it!

Watching from home this year. Looking forward to Tekken 7 and game reveals. Not much else this year unfortunately.

Truly the Super Bowl of fighting game tournaments.,,It's that time of year again!

Definitely watching for T7, and all the other finals that I can watch. All the potential reveals at THIS event make this basically E3 for fighting games.

Can't wait to see SF5 on ESPN2 again just to see the casual salt dripping down on Twitter. Also I'm hoping S.Kill is all set for that ESPN broadcast. Seeing him and Mike on the television screen just feels right.

Dragon Ball FighterZ will NOT have a new build, right? More specifically, no new characters, right? Just wanna make sure before I get too hyped.

I'm looking forward to seeing all the new and upcoming fighting games being announced and showcased.
 
I hope there are no finals on Friday. Work is pretty hectic right now and wasn't able to get the weekend off for Evo like I usually do. Will be able to see everything Saturday and Sunday though.

Edit: THIS IS THE US's YEAR TO WIN EVO. FOR AMERICA.

I want Idom to do some major damage! Well, there's a lot of players I want to see do damage, but yeah... Good to see he's attending.

Woo! And now I've got to look at schedules compared to Splatoon 2 Splatfest timing... :(

It might overlap with the end of another top 8, but I think the only game it really fucks with is Melee (talking North America's Splatfest).

Can't wait to watch KOF and Street Fighter this weekend. Will probably try to catch a little Guilty Gear as well.
 
Looking forward to KOF and Gundam Versus the most myself. And of course new DBFZ footage! Give us some Trunks footage dammit! Already been teased in Famitsu!
